You can sew this batwing pattern as a dress or a top and it has two sleeve options; short and long. The long sleeve version will be a stylish addition to your wardrobe for the colder months of the year.

FABRIC SUGGESTION

Use stretch knit fabrics with good recovery and at least 50% crosswise stretch. I recommend at least 5% spandex.

You want to avoid rib knits and interlock-knit fabrics since the ends do not roll as single jersey does. Single jersey is basically what most T-shirts are made off. The edge of the jersey will naturally curl to the right side of the fabric.

You can use cotton spandex (lycra, elastane), rayon (viscose, modal, lyocell) spandex or other blends with spandex. Light or midweight fabrics give best result.

“The yoke construction is genius, I tried this method once before but it didn't work for me. The instructions and diagrams are clear and the yoke worked out first time: I gave a little squeal of joy when I turned it out!This pattern has the correct amount of techniques to challenge the sewist without being tedious. A very enjoyable & satisfying sew ”
